Playtime Recommendations
Interacting with your bird is every bit as important as providing an interesting environment. The secret to keeping your bird happy is the frequency of attention, not the duration. A few minutes of attention several times daily works wonders to relieve stress. Mental growth comes from engaging in a variety of life experiences. Experiment to discover the types of toys your bird finds the most interesting and challenging. Keep in mind that no matter which toys you provide, and regardless of how intriguing, your bird will eventually tire of them. It is important not to place too many toys in the cage at once, which may over-stimulate your bird and cause stress. It's better to choose a select few and to rotate them every few days.

Birds are intelligent creatures and can easily become bored when their routine or scenery does not change, or if they are not being stimulated mentally or physically. The best thing you can do is to make uplifting changes in your bird's routine.

My african greys loves it
every time when I place the new natural rope ladder to her cage, she takes few days to observe. But ones she decides the time has come and starts to chew, the ladder is gone in two days :)
Bit sad for ladder, but great for her busy beak :D
I am yet to find other similar chewing toy that would attract her attention in such a way.

Great fun for budgies
I gave this ladder to my budgies several months ago, and they pretty much ignored it. I had it hanging against the back of the cage, but they'd climb up the cage wall instead of the ladder. I think it was because the rungs are a bit large for their feet.
A few days ago, I moved the ladder. It's now hanging horizontally, from the back of the cage to the front, just like a little suspension bridge. Now my budgies use the ladder all the time. It bounces when they walk along it, and they can swing it from side to side. As a suspension bridge, it's become a big hit!

Great toy. Fabulous value
My caiques and Eclectus love it. Caiques play, swing, chew. i had to buy two more as a backup cause they love so much.

nice ladder
The rope ladder is of good construction quality, and the length is perfect for my bird's cage. So far, I have not seen my cockatiel playing with it, but I've only had him about a month, and I think he is still settling in.

Yes it comes with safe metal buckles.I think you need to try the size. My African grey can actually play (and destroy) either small or large size.If your conure has a long tail, maybe go better for the large one too.

Get the larger size if your looking at the Naturals Rope Ladders it says it is for Tiels and parrots. The smaller one is for parakeet size birds. It should come with attachment links (hooks) to hang in your cage and you can hang it anyway you feel. I hang my conures ladder vertically from the top of his cage connecting to the side so it would get higher as he climb. :D

Thank you for your inquiry to Drs. Foster and Smith. Our sizing recommendations or convenient sizing charts are available for each toy to help you choose the right toys appropriate for your bird's size and species. We do see that for this item it is not listed. We suggest a small size as Conures are considered a medium/small bird.

The ladder is held on by quick link connectors so that you can adjust where you’d like the ladder to hang from.

Can you please tell me what the dimensions of the rungs are? How thick are they and how far apart are they spaced? For both the small and the large ladder please. I want one, just need to make sure it will work for my birds. "Small" and "large" size doesn't help fully as I have one small cockatiel and one large. Small 'tiel not agile anymore. Thank you very much.

Thank you for your question. The diameter of the Naturals Rope Ladders come in small, which is 1/2", and the large is 3/4". The rope on the small ladder has knots tied between each rung. The rungs are 1/2" apart. The rungs on the large ladder are moveable but they are spaced about 1.5" apart.
